Leanne Michelle Abbott is said to have made her young sons inject her with heroin

According to TribLive, the two boys revealed to police in the US state of Pennsylvania that they helped inject Abbott with a sugar-like powder that she’d allegedly mixed with water before putting it in the syringe.

In an interview with social workers they reportedly said they were asked to “inject her with something”.

Police were told how the kids used “(a) plastic thing shaped like a cylinder with a sharp pointy thing at the end”.

They are then said to have told how they “pull it up until they saw blood, then push it back in”.
